Families waiting to be matched with a child need extensive engagement and development. The Family Matching unit includes ongoing efforts in these areas as well as activities to identify a child for placement with an eligible SWAN family through implementation of a Family Matching Plan. This is an affiliate referred, 8-month unit of service with the ability for the affiliate to refer for a 4-month extension. The referral can only be made by the agency that completed the SWAN Family Profile.
For more information see the 06. SWAN Units of Service and the 08. SWAN Benchmarks & Templates of the Toolkit.
